  • hyperlipoproteinemia involving an imbalance of the lipoporteins.
  • the most serious condition associted with hyperlipidemia and hyperlipoproteinemia is atherosclerosis, a form of arteriosclerosis characterized by lipid accumulation and thickening of the walls of both medium-sized and large arteries such as the aorta. Their walls are thereby weakened and the elasticity and effective internal size of the arteries decreased.
  • Atherosclerosis the most common cause of coronary artery disease, is of great medical importance since it tends to occlude those arteries supplying blood to the heart muscles and brain, thereby producing permanent damage to these organs. Such damage may lead to ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure, life-threatening arrhythmias, senility, or stroke. Involvement of leg arteries may lead to gangrene and loss of the limb. It has been known for more than 100 years that cholesterol is a major component of atherosclerotic lesions or plaques. Investigators have been trying to determine the role of cholesterol in lesion initiation and development and also, most importantly, whether lesion formation can be prevented or reversed and enlargement of lesions be slowed or stopped. The earliest lesions are now known to be fatty streaks, largely of cholesterol, which often progress in stages to plaques containing cellular, fibrous and calcified material in addition to the lipids.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Considerable effort has been directed in recent years to obtain substances useful in counteracting the consequences of hyperlipidemia, a condition involving elevated cholesterol, phospholipid and/or triglyceride levels in the blood, and of hyperlipoproteinemia, involving an imbalance of the lipoporteins. The most serious condition associted with hyperlipidemia and hyperlipoproteinemia is atherosclerosis, a form of arteriosclerosis characterized by lipid accumulation and thickening of the walls of both medium-sized and large arteries such as the aorta. Their walls are thereby weakened and the elasticity and effective internal size of the arteries decreased. Atherosclerosis, the most common cause of coronary artery disease, is of great medical importance since it tends to occlude those arteries supplying blood to the heart muscles and brain, thereby producing permanent damage to these organs. Such damage may lead to ischemic heart disease, congestive heart failure, life-threatening arrhythmias, senility, or stroke. Involvement of leg arteries may lead to gangrene and loss of the limb. It has been known for more than 100 years that cholesterol is a major component of atherosclerotic lesions or plaques. Investigators have been trying to determine the role of cholesterol in lesion initiation and development and also, most importantly, whether lesion formation can be prevented or reversed and enlargement of lesions be slowed or stopped. The earliest lesions are now known to be fatty streaks, largely of cholesterol, which often progress in stages to plaques containing cellular, fibrous and calcified material in addition to the lipids.
The evidence that hyperlipidemia is one of the factors involved in coronary heart disease is very impressive. A most important study carried out in Framingham, Mass. (Gordon and Verter, 1969) in over 5,000 persons for more than 12 years established a correlation between high concentrations of blood cholesterol and increased risk of heart attack. Although the causes of coronary artery disease are multiple, one of the most constant factors has been the elevated concentration of lipids in the blood plasma. A combined elevation of cholesterol and triglycerides has been shown (Carlson and Bottiger, 1972) to carry the highest risk of coronary heart disease. The majority of patients with ischemic heart disease or peripheral vascular disease were found to have hyperlipoproteinemia, involving very low-density and/or low-density lipoproteins (Lewis et al. 1974).
The reason for most treatment of hyperlipidemia or hyperlipoproteinemia is for arresting, reversing or preventing atherosclerosis. In the past, attempts have been made to lower the levels of cholesterol, phospholipids, and triglycerides in the blood by the oral feeding of various substances which have been generally referred to in the art as hypolipidemic agents or hypocholesteremic adjuvants. Typical of such substances are lecithin, pectin, cottonseed oil, and the mucilaginous substances listed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,148,114. In addition, several synthetic hypolipidemic agents are now available, namely, clofibrate, D-thyroxine, cholestyramine and nicotinic acid [Levy and Frederickson, Postgraduate Medicine 47, 130 (1970)]. Clofibrate has the undesirable side-effect of causing hypertrophy of the liver in some patients.
The development of agents capable of reducing elevated blood lipids and of favorably altering blood-lipoprotein patterns is considered by medical authorities to be extremely important for the treatment and prevention of atherosclerosis. Orally active agents are required since patients usually take them for a number of years.
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
The compounds of this invention are new and novel mono-substituted derivatives of the alkyl moiety of the 4-alkylaminobenzoic acids described in U.S. Pat. No. 3,868,416 and novel esters and amides thereof, and have therapeutically useful biological and pharmacological properties. No hypolipemic activity has been reported in the literature for these compounds and they are different in structure and superior in action to other hypolipidemic agents. The compounds of this invention lower serum-lipid concentrations and also decrease the deposition of lipids in the aorta. The novel compounds of this invention are reliably absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract and cause little, if any gastrointestinal irritation.
We have now found that certain members of this class of compound can safely and effectively lower both serum sterols and triglycerides in warm-blooded mammals. Such actions on serum-lipid components are considered to be very useful in the treatment of atherosclerosis, especially in contrast to available drugs whose action is much more limited. For some time it has been considered important to lower serum-lipid levels and to correct lipoprotein imbalance in mammals as a preventive measure against atherosclerosis. The compounds of the present invention do not act by blocking late stages of cholsterol biosynthesis and thus do not produce accumulation of intermediates such as desmosterol, as equally undesirable as cholesterol itself. Compounds with the combination of therapeutically favorable characteristics possessed by those of the present invention can be safely administered to warm-blooded mammals for the treatment of hyperlipidemic and atherosclerotic states found in patients with or prone to heart attacks, to peripheral or cerebral vascular disease, and to stroke.
The 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids and analogs of the present invention are, in general, white crystalline solids having characteristic melting points and absorption spectra. They are soluble in organic solvents such as lower alkanols, chloroform, toluene, dimethylformamide, and the like but are generally not very soluble in water.
The novel 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids and analogs of the present invention which are organic bases may be converted to their non-toxic acid-addition salts with a variety of pharmaceutically acceptable oganic and inorganic salt-forming reagents. Thus, acid-addition salts may be formed by admixture of the organic free base in a neutral solvent with one or two equivalents of an acid such as sulfuric, phosphoric, hydrochloric, hyrobromic, trifluoroacetic, citric, tartaric, ascorbic, and the like. The novel compounds of the present invention in their acidic forms or which contain acidic substituents are converted to their organic or inorganic cationic salts for therapeutic use. The sodium or potassium salts which are formed in solution in the course of hydrolysis of their esters can be isolated as the solid alkali metal salts by cooling. Where it is desirable to purify a compound in the form of the acid, the salt is conveniently formed by treating its solution with exactly one equivalent of base and evaporation or lyophilization. Alkaline earth salts are prepared similarly, often using their acetate salts as a conveniently soluble form. Organic base salts such as those of 1-methylglucamine are prepared by dissolving equimolar amounts of the acid and the base in hot ethanol or aqueous alcohols and cooling to crystallization.
Many of the novel 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids, esters, and amides of the present invention are prepared by reactions of the corresponding 4-aminobenzoic acid, ester, or amide with an appropriate alkylating or acylating agent followed by chemical modification of the monosubstituted-alkyl group. Alkylating and acylating agents especially suitable for these reactions are hydroxyalkyl halides and haloalkanoic acids, which are generally known in the chemical literature. Those which are not known are readily prepared from the corresponding hydroxyalkanoic acids either by reduction of the carboxylic acid group with reagents such as the alkali metal hydrides or by replacement of the hydroxy group with halogen with reagents such as hydrogen bromide. In certain cases, chemical modification of the monosubstituted-alkyl moiety before, rather than after the alkylation or acylation reaction as described above, is preferable. In these cases, reactions similar to those described subsequently for the interchange of substituents in 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]phenyl compounds are employed.
Alkylation of the appropriate 4-aminophenyl compounds with suitable alkylating agents such as halides, sulfates, tosylates or trifluoromethanesulfonates is carried out with or without solvent at 50° C.-150° C. Suitable solvents are lower alkanols, chloroform, N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, diglyme, dimethylsulfoxide, acetonitrile, toluene, benzene, hexamethylphosphoramide and the like. The reaction may be carried out with an equivalent of base such as an alkali carbonate or bicarbonate, or with a catalytic amount of copper powder when substituted alkyl halides are used as the alkylating agent. Alternatively, alkylation of the sodium salt (formed with sodium hydride) of either the amino group of a 4-aminophenyl compound or the anilide moiety of a 4-(acetylamino)phenyl compound yields the desired alkylation product or an N-acetyl derivatives thereof. Other 4-aminophenyl compounds useful in these alkylation reactions, or in the subsequently described acylation reactions, are for example, 4-aminobenzonitrile, p-toluidine, and the acetal of 4-aminobenzaldehyde. In these cases, the desired alkylation product is obtained by a subsequent oxidative or hydrolytic transformation of the nitrile, methyl, or acetal group.
Acylation of a 4-aminophenyl compound followed by diborane reduction of the resulting 4-(acylamino)phenyl compounds at room temperature or above for 1-16 hours also yields certain of the 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]phenyl compounds of the present invention. An alternative method for the reduction of 4-(acylamino)benzoate esters or 4-(acylamino)benzamides involves reaction of these intermediates with phosphorus oxychloride followed by reduction of the resulting chloroimides with sodium borohydride.
An alternative method for the preparation of certain of the desired alkylation products involves reductive alkylation of a 4-aminobenzoic ester or amide with a substituted aldehyde or ketone. The 4-aminobenzoic ester or amide itself may be used or it may be generated in situ by reduction of a 4-amino group precursor such as the 4-nitro group.
Two types of substitution reactions also yield certain of the 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]phenyl compounds of the present invention. The reaction of esters of 3,4-didehydrobenzoic acid with an alkylamine (or its alkali metal salt), or Friedel-Crafts acylation of an N-alkylaniline or N-acyl-N-alkylaniline yields certain of the desired compounds or intermediates thereto. The former type of reaction, in which the 3,4-didehydrobenzoic acid is generated in situ is carried out by treating a 4-halobenzoate ester or disubstituted amide such as phenyl 4-bromobenzoate with the lithium, potassium or sodium salt of excess alkylamine such as 11-(n-butylthio)undecylamine in diethyl ether or other aprotic solvent. The second method comprises reacting N-(11-methylthiohexadecyl)aniline and the like or its N-acetyl derivative with a carboalkoxy chloride or oxalyl chloride and anhydrous aluminum chloride in dry diethyl ether, halocarbon or hydrocarbon medium.
The 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids of the present invention may be obtained by hydrolysis of the corresponding 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoate esters in boiling aqueous ethanolic alkali followed by acidification. Alternatively, these benzoic acids may be isolated as their alkali metal salts.
The novel 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic esters and amides of the present invention may be readily prepared by treating the corresponding acid halides, mixed acid anhydrides, or activated estrs or amides with an appropriate hydroxy compound, amine, or salt of a carboxamide or sulfonamide. These reactions are preferably carried out in an inert solvent at a temperature of 25°-125° C. for a period of time from about 30 minutes to 18 hours or more. In the case of the acid halide and other acid-forming acylating agents, the reaction is carried out in the presence of an acid scavenger such as diisopropylethylamine, 4-dimethylaminopyridine, pyridine, triethylamine, finely powdered sodium carbonate, and the like. The acid halide and anhydride starting materials may be obtained from the corresponding 4-(monosubstituted-monoalkylamino)benzoic acids by methods which are well-known in the art or described herein. However, a protecting group on the arylamino nitrogen is used for best results. The simplest protecting group is provided by protonation of the amine to give an anilinium salt prior to or during formation of the acylating agent. Acylation of this amino group by carefully selected acyl groups such as carbobenzyloxy, carbo-t-butoxy, and trifluoroacetyl provides protecting of this group from self-acylation during ester or amide formation. These protecting groups are then removed by catalytic hydrogenation, mild acid treatment, and mild alkali treatment, respectively. Activated esters or amides, which are used to synthesize the esters or amides of the present invention, are carboxymethyl, 4-nitrophenyl, N-oxysuccinimide, 1-imidazoyl and the like. In certain cases, treatment of acids or ordinary esters such as methyl or ethyl with an excess of an appropriate hydroxy-containing substrate in the presence of a Lewis or mineral acid such as boron trifluoride, sulfuric acid, or hydrochloric acid is sufficient to convert the 4-(monosubstituted-monoalkylamino)benzoic esters or acids to the appropriate esters.
With certain kinds of substrates for ester formation, it is necessary to form the alkali metal or strong organic base salts of the 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids in order to react them with the various halo-, methanesulfonate- or p-toluenesulfonate-containing substrates. Certain 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoate esters may be prepared by the reaction of 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids with diazoalkyl compounds such as ethyl diazoacetate and the like, obtained by reaction of nitrous acid or alkyl nitrite on α- or β-aminoalkanoate esters.
The (monosubstituted-alkylamino)benzoate esters or amides are also prepared by de-acylation of the corresponding 4-(N-trifluoroacetyl-monosubstituted-alkylamino)benzoate esters or amides by reaction with an alkali hydroxide such as sodium or potassium in a lower alkanol, water or an aqueous lower alkanol at 5° C. to 50° C. Alternatively, the 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoate esters or amides may be prepared by de-acylation of the 4-(N-carbo-t-butoxy-N-alkylamino)benzoate esters or amides with mineral acids such as hydrochloric or hydrobromic acid, preferably in glacial acetic acid or with anhydrous trifluoroacetic acid at 0° C. to 50° C. Also these compounds are prepared by removal of the carbobenzyloxy protecting group from the anilino nitrogen atom by means of catalytic hydrogenation or treatment with a mineral acid such as hydrobromic acid, preferably in glacial acetic acid.
With certain kinds of substrates for amide formation, it is necessary to form the alkali metal or strong organic base salts of these substrates in order to react them with the various aforementioned acylating forms of the 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acids. The aminoalkanecarboxylic and aminoalkanesulfonic acids are zwitterionic and must be converted to their salts, suitable in situ. They may also be used in the form of their esters and they hydrolyzed after amide formation. Certain substrates, which are neutral like the carboxamides or slightly acidic like the alkane or arenesulfonamides, are converted to reactive sodium salts by reaction with sodium hydride or other basic reagents.
Certain N-substituted derivatives of the amino nitrogen atom are useful for providing greater solubility, more uniform and reliable intestinal absorption, and for a certain degree of modification of the pharmacology of the compounds of the present invention. Some of these derivatives can be converted to the corresponding N--H forms by the acidity of the stomach or the alkalinity of the small intestine. Others are converted by metabolic processes. The methyl and carboxymethyl derivatives and the like are prepared by the alkylation, reductive alkylation, and acylamino reduction methods above. Derivatives such as the acetyl and succinyl compounds may be prepared using acetyl chloride, acetic anhydride, succinic anhydride, etc. in the presence of pyridine, triethylamine or the like at temperatures moderate enough to avoid acylation of the amide moiety. The 1-(sodium sulfo)alkyl derivatives are obtained by reaction of the 4-[(monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]benzoic acid, ester or amide with sodium bisulfite and an aliphatic aldehyde, a polyhydroxyaldehyde such as glyceraldehyde or glucose, or cinnamaldehyde in a mixed organic-aqueous medium. In the case of cinnamaldehyde, the di-sulfonate salts result from addition of the bisulfite to the carbon-nitrogen double bond of the anil intermediate as well as to the carbon-carbon double bond of cinnamaldehyde itself.
In certain cases, unsaturation is introduced at a late stage of the preparation of 4-(monosubstituted-unsaturatedalkylamino)benzoic acid derivatives. For example, an alkyl 4-(monosubstituted-ω-haloalkylamino)benzoate is dehydrohalogenated to the corresponding olefinic compound or, alternatively, it is converted to a Wittig trialkylphosphonium reagent and reacted with an aldehyde to yield a product with an internal double bond. This ω-halo substrate is also reacted with an alkylacetylene sodium or lithium salt to form 4-(monosubstituted-alkynylamino)benzoic acid derivatives. In other cases, a 4-(monosubstituted-unsaturatedalkylamino)benzoic acid derivative is converted to the corresponding saturated derivative by catalytic hydrogenation. In still other cases, a 4-(unsubstituted-unsaturatedalkylamino)benzoic acid derivative is converted to the desired 4-(monosubstituted-monoalkylamino)benzoic acid derivative by the addition of a reagent to the double or triple bond. An example of this type of reaction is the addition of hydrogen bromide to ethyl 4-(11-undecenylamino)benzoate to yield ethyl 4-(10-bromoundecylamino)benzoate.
Many of the novel compounds of the present invention are prepared by chemical modifications of the substituent already present in a 4-[(-monosubstituted-alkyl)amino]phenyl compound. An example of this type of modification is the conversion of a hydroxy substituent to a group activated for displacement, such as a methanesulfonate or p-toluenesulfonate ester. This modification is accomplished by methods well known to those skilled in the art. Alternatively, the hydroxy substituent may be converted to a halogen substituent, for example, the reaction of 4-(11-hydroxyundecylamino)benzoic acid with hydrogen bromide affords 4-(11-bromoundecylamino)benzoic acid.
Displacement reactions of the above described sulfonate esters and halides may be carried out with a variety of nucleophiles, such as, for example, thiourea, potassium thioacetate, sodium thiophenoxide, the sodium or potassium salt of 2-mercaptopropane or 3-(p-chlorophenyl)propanethiol, the sodium salt of methanesulfonamide, sodium azide, potassium chloride, sodium iodide and the like. These displacement reactions yield 4-(monosubstituted-monoalkylamino)phenyl compounds, monosubstituents such as, thiuronium halide, acetylthio, phenylthio, 2-propylthio, 3-(p-chlorophenyl)propylthio, amino, anilino, azido, chloro, iodo, and the like. Hydrolysis of the thioacetates or thiuronium salts resulting from these displacements affords mercapto substituted 4-(monoalkylamino)phenyl compounds. The mercapto 4-(monoalkylamino)phenyl compounds may be alkylated with alkyl or aralkyl halides to yield alkylthio- or aralkylthio-substituted 4-(monoalkylamino)phenyl compounds. Oxidation of these alkylthio- or aralkylthio-substituted derivatives or the previously mentioned arylthio-substituted 4-(monoalkylamino)phenyl compounds with one equivalent of an oxidizing agent such as m-chloroperbenzoic acid affords the corresponding sulfoxides. Oxidation of these derivatives with excess oxidizing agent yields the corresponding sulfones. These sulfinyl and sulfonylalkyl derivatives are also obtained by alkylation of aminophenyl compounds such as ethyl 4-aminobenzoate with sulfinyl or sulfonyl-substituted alkyl halides or sulfonates.
The alkylation of certain 4-aminophenyl compounds with haloketones yields 4-(alkanoylalkylamino)phenyl compounds, for example, alkylation of ethyl 4-aminobenzoate with 1-bromo-6-hexadecanone (obtained by the reaction of 6-bromohexanoyl chloride with n-decyl magnesium bromide in the presence of cadmium chloride) yields ethyl 4-(6-oxohexadecylamino)benzoate. Carbonyl derivatives of this type may be reduced to the corresponding alcohols with diborane, converted to tertiary alcohols by reaction with Grignard or alkyllithium reagents, or converted to the corresponding oximes by reaction with hydroxylamine hydrochloride.
The novel compounds of the present invention are not only potent hypolipidemic agents but also prevent or diminish the formation or enlargement of arterial plaques in mammals when administered in amounts ranging from about one milligram to about 250 mg. per kilogram of body weight per day. A preferred dosage regimen for optimum results would be from about 5 mg. to about 10 mg. per kilogram of body weight per day, and such dosage units are employed that a total of from about 0.35 gram to about 7.0 grams of the active compound for a subject of about 70 kg. of body weight are administered in a 24 hour period. This dosage regimen may be adjusted to provide the optimum therapeutic response. For example, several divided doses may be administered daily or the dose may be proportionally reduced as indicated by the exigencies of the therapeutic situation. A decided practical advantage of this invention is that the active compound may be administered in a convenient manner by the oral route. The compounds of the present invention exert a more powerful hypocholesteremic and antiatherosclerotic effect than the aforementioned adjuvants and synthetic medicaments. It is not known how these novel compounds operate in the blood serum and no theory of why these compounds so operate is advanced. It is not intended that the present invention should be limited to any particular mechanism of action of lowering serum lipids or of ameliorating atherosclerosis, or be limited to compounds acting by only one mechanism.
The active compounds of the present invention may be orally administered, for example, with an inert diluent or with an assimilable edible carrier, or they may be enclosed in hard or soft shell gelatin capsules, or they may be compressed into tablets, or they may be incorporated directly with the food of the diet. For oral therapeutic administration, the active compounds may be incorporated with excipients and used in the form of ingestible tablets, buccal tablets, troches, capsules, elixirs, suspensions, syrups, wafers, and the like. Such compositions and preparations should contain at least 0.1% of active compound. The percentage of the compositions and preparations may, of course, be varied and may conveniently be between about 2 to about 60% of the weight of the unit. The amount of active ingredient in such therapeutically useful compositions is such that a suitable dosage will be obtained. Preferred compositions or preparations according to the present invention are prepared so that an oral dosage-unit form contains between about 50 and 250 milligrams of active compound.
The tablets, troches, pills, capsules and the like may also contain the following: a binder such as gum tragacanth, acacia, corn starch or gelatin; excipients such as dicalcium phosphate; a disintegrating agent such as corn starch, potato starch, alginic acid and the like; a lubricant such as magnesium stearate; and a sweetening agent such as sucrose, lactose or saccharin may be added or a flavoring agent such as peppermint, oil of wintergreen, or cherry flavoring. When the dosage-unit form is a capsule, it may contain, in addition to materials of the above type, a liquid carrier. Various other materials may be present as coatings or to otherwise modify the physical form of the dosage unit. For instance, tablets, pills, or capsules may be coated with shellac, sugar or both. A syrup or elixir may contain the active compound, sucrose as a sweetening agent, methyl and propylparabens as preservatives, a dye, and flavoring such as cherry or orange flavor. Of course, any material used in preparing any dosage-unit form should be pharmaceutically pure and substantially non-toxic in the amounts employed. In addition, the active ingredients may be incorporated into sustained-release preparations and formulations.
The invention will be described in greater detail in conjunction with the following specific examples.
